Nighttime Tidepool Exploration, May 25, 2016

The clouds were heavy enough this evening that sunset came as gradual darkening in the mist. I was still out at Haystack Rock and noticed people exploring the tidepools with flashlights. This long exposure shows ghostly shapes of the people moving around, and more importantly, shows the trails their flashlights made. I was lucky to get a reasonable shape out of the light trail, and the foreground rocks also got lit up, making a warm counterpart to the blue tones throughout the scene.
